As I got about a mile into the run lightning started increasing and within minutes was constant. I really wasn’t sure what to do. There were no houses where I was on route 74 Glad you made it. Lightning and wind were the only two conditions I hated running in. (For different reasons) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in my heyday a long run would require vasoline be put around and on the nipples to minimize chafing. Feet and toes also. But being out in constant ctg nearby definitely takes the case for insanity. Among the worst and most helpless feelings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Should be just sct stuff south of pike and east of Berks I think. Maybe stuff gets into areas past that like HFD, but we’ll take the stein. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always look at radar before I leave. It was a downpour that just blossomed into a huge lightning producer in minutes as it moved in. The sky was orange , there was a bit of fog.. CG flashing all around. I honestly wondered to myself if this was it . Probably the fastest last mile home I’ve ever run 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was absolutely terrifying running under trees . So many close lightning strikes. Power is out . That was crazy . Still shaking. It was flash, instant sizzle Got you one up. I got got in a T-Storm up on the Crawford Path above the Lakes of the Clouds Hut up on the Mount Washington Dome. Was with my dad and daughter at that time and it was the most terrifying experience.
